What is "negus"?
Negus is a traditional alcoholic beverage that is often served during the winter months, particularly around Christmas and New Year's Eve. The drink is made by mixing red wine with hot water and adding sugar, lemon, spices, and sometimes a shot of brandy or rum. The mixture is then heated until the sugar has dissolved and the flavors have melded together. The resulting drink has a warming and comforting quality, and is often served in a punch bowl or teapot. Negus has a long history, dating back to the 18th century when it was a popular drink among the British aristocracy. It was named after Sir Francis Negus, an English politician who was known for hosting lavish parties where the drink was served. Today, negus is still enjoyed as a festive and comforting drink, and is often served at holiday parties and gatherings. It can also be customized to suit individual tastes by adjusting the sweetness or spice level.
